We have over a decade tried the all-in-one printer/scanner/copier, and have since accumulated tons of paper because the ADF on the all-in-one is slow, it's prone to error, the quality of the scan is suspect, etc. We've just settled for huge filing cabinet and hope for the best.

But the set-up was so simple. The size and durability of the printer quickly changed my mind since it was small enough to fit on my desk vs my all-in-one. I was up and running within 10 minutes. It connected easily through my docking station and my wife has even enjoyed it. It scans so quickly, and the quality I can't believe given how quickly it goes through. Even carbon copy receipts was clearly legible! I think I scanned closed to 20 pages in seconds.\r\n\r\nThe software is easy to use, I wished it had a few more integrations (e.g. one note, which I'm sure if I played around with it more I could print to one note). The indexing could always be better, but I think that's true even with the most sophisticated hardware/software out there.  You'd have to get pretty smart like detecting a change in paper/font/layout to know \"this is a new document\" (enhancement request!). \r\n\r\nI'd highly recommend this to anyone who is trying to clear out paper, index their personal files, create back-ups, or otherwise really reduce the stress of \"all this paper!\".","name":"Wow!"},{"@type":"Review","@id":"https://epson.com/For-Home/Scanners/Document-Scanners/WorkForce-ES-865-Color-Duplex-Document-Scanner/p/B11B250202#review-161482971","datePublished":"2020-08-18","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"5","bestRating":"5","worstRating":"1"},"reviewBody":"The scanner provided a clear and high tech picture.

Not excessively, but enough to protect the scanner being shipped to your door. The scanner itself is quite sturdy and well constructed. It is a heavy-duty plastic and has a nice texture and appearance. The paper folds out to catch large documents as they scan, and compactly slides back inside the scanner itself to save space. It works with both Windows 7-10 PCs and Mac OS systems. It was very easy to set up, install, and begin using the scanner within just a few minutes.\r\n\r\nThe specs of this scanner are phenomenal for the price-point, and the performance is phenomenal. To start off, it does 65ppm/130ipm (duplex) in color/b&w/grayscale. With a 100-page feeder that has nice, smooth sliding size adjustments it makes scanning large batches a snap. It also includes a double-feed detection to make sure that you don’t miss scanning any pages that are discretely stuck together. You can scan documents as small as 2”x2” and as large as 8.5”x240” using the long document mode, so it should be able to handle almost any scan job you can throw at it.\r\n\r\nIt also has a small, color, LCD display that allows you to scan, change settings, perform maintenance, and view information. This is a somewhat useful feature so you don’t have to mess around in the scanner software to find any of these operations.\r\n\r\nThe Epson ScanSmart software is a very user-friendly interface and allows for basic scanning functions and save/send the documents to various services/locations. You can either initiate a scan from the software, or just load your stack of documents and hit the blue scan button on the scanner and (when connected to your computer) it will automatically load the software and start scanning the document.\r\n\r\nThis is a review for the Epson WorkForce ES-865 Color Duplex Document scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review","name":"The Epson WorkForce ES-865 Scanner is a fantastic, high-spee"},{"@type":"Review","@id":"https://epson.com/For-Home/Scanners/Document-Scanners/WorkForce-ES-865-Color-Duplex-Document-Scanner/p/B11B250202#review-161453679","datePublished":"2020-08-18","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"5","bestRating":"5","worstRating":"1"},"reviewBody":"If you are looking for a way to quickly scan numerous documents, then the ES-865 Color Duplex Scanner is the absolute best on the market.

I've used many different model scanners at work and this model competes with more expensive models in those terms of performance. It scans at over 60 pages per minute (double that if double-sided) and has a high duty cycle rating of 7,000 page a day, these two specs would make this an ideal workhorse for businesses. The feeder holds up to 100 pages and is flexible in use. This model has TWAIN support which allows you the ability to use other scanning software if you chose to. I tested the TWAIN support with 3rd party scanning software and it worked well with no problems. But when it came to OCR accuracy the Epson software with it's built-in OCR support or integration could not be beat so I stuck with using the bundled Epson ScanSmart software. The OCR from the Epson software was much quicker as well. Image quality is very good and resolution maxes out at 1200dpi.\r\n\r\nThe Epson SmartScan software is straightforward and easy to use, but it is a bit light on advanced features and settings. The software could be a bit more robust with easier/quicker access to scan quality settings. It has buttons to allow for attachment to email, uploads to cloud hosts like Google drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Evernote, Print, and saving to MS Office file formats. The Invoice/Receipt Management features unfortunately requires a paid one-time upgrade.\r\n\r\nUnfortunately this model is missing network connectivity, there is no Ethernet or Wi-Fi support. This limits the versatility of the scanner and forces you to place it at a desk next to a desktop or laptop. I would've liked to bring it into the living room and spend an afternoon scanning mail and documents in front of the TV. In the office it could've have been set up near the front reception counter to quickly scan documents from clients. Since there is no network connectivity, there is no scan to smartphone or tablet support.\r\n\r\nAnother negative is the lack of support for user-defined jobs through the scanner menu and interface. I've used scanners in the past where you could set up pre-defined locations and folders to scan to and with different scan settings accessible from the scanner itself and I feel that is an important feature for businesses. There is no \"One-touch\" scanning either which several competitors offer. When you press the SCAN button on this scanner it starts up the Epson Scansmart software on the connected PC and you have to continue the scanning process there, there is no way to set a default save location and have files automatically named and saved without PC intervention. Scanning at the very minimum requires 3 button presses or clicks; Scan button on the scanner, click on \"Save\" in scanning software to bring up the Save screen, then another click on \"Save\" to save the file. This was a disappointment after using other brands and models that offer that time-saving feature.\r\n\r\nThe build quality of the scanner is solid with good quality rigid plastics with minimal flex and good fit of components. The rollers and other consumable parts have an estimated lifetime of 200,000 scans and replacement parts are available. The footprint is small and compact and that helps with placement and positioning on the desk. The feeder and output trays are versatile and easy to manipulate for different paper sizes. I've scanned a few hundred pages a day so far without a hiccup or paper jam, the high volume reliability is impressive.\r\n\r\nThe existing features and functionality may be adequate and enough for typical home users or less demanding offices with straightforward scan jobs, but this excellent hardware would really benefit from software updates that add features to improve ease of use, versatility, and one touch scanning that advanced users want. If you do not need more advanced features and customization and only need a fast, accurate, and reliable scanner that does it's job then this model would be great and recommended. The excellent OCR accuracy and fast scanning speeds certainly make this a terrific scanner for most users.\r\n\r\nThis is a review for the Epson WorkForce ES-865 Color Duplex Document scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.","name":"Great Hardware, fast and accurate scanner"},{"@type":"Review","@id":"https://epson.com/For-Home/Scanners/Document-Scanners/WorkForce-ES-865-Color-Duplex-Document-Scanner/p/B11B250202#review-161448216","datePublished":"2020-08-18","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"5","bestRating":"5","worstRating":"1"},"reviewBody":"I am really impressed with the quality and speed that this scanner provides.

I was able to download and install the software from the website successfully and install it without incident.  Did the test scan and was truly blown away at the result.  \r\nI then decided to scan some double sided magazine pages I had been working on with my previous scanner to get some comparison.

My photo scans came out beautiful and I was able to play with them in photoshop because of the high resolution scan.\r\nMy next job was to scan multiple pages at the same time since this is the primary reason I need this scanner.  I put 56 double sided pages and the scanning was complete in less than 60 seconds!  You can officially color me impressed.

This is great since you are able to move it around, if needed, and it does not take up a lot of space on your desk.  Taking it out of the box was easy, especially since it is so light.  I don’t mean light as in flimsy,  I mean that in weight, and it does feel quite durable.  The quick start guide was great!  It was so simple and walked me through the steps of setting it up.  The setup was fairly quick, the only thing that took a while, I would say about 20 minutes or so, was downloading the software.  \r\n \r\nI then went on to test it out.  Boy, this thing is quick!  I was so surprised.  I have never used a scanner that was this fast.  The page shoots right out in about a second and your scanned page is immediately on your screen.  I then went on to try a double sided document.  I was thinking I would need to turn it over, making sure it was the correct way so it didn’t end up upside down on the screen (a common problem I have had with other scanners in the past), but to my surprise, I looked up on the screen an both sides we already done in one scan!  In order to try something besides a regular sheet of paper, I took out an old box of photos that I do not have any digital copies of.  I adjusted the paper tray to the size of the photo and clicked the button.  It scanned perfectly and also scans the other side of the photo.  I saw on the computer screen that you can turn this option off, but I decided to keep it on, since most of my photos have names and dates and other important information on the back.  How neat that you have the option to do this and can save all your important photo information.  I plan on doing more old photos so that I can share online with friends and family, and also have plans to save a lot of digital copies of documents so that I can clear some clutter. I can’t wait to use it some more.  It is also simple enough that my 9-year-old daughter can use it, and she is enjoying helping me with the photos.\r\n\r\nThis is a review for the Epson Workforce ES-865 Color Duplex Document scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.","name":"I love this scanner!"},{"@type":"Review","@id":"https://epson.com/For-Home/Scanners/Document-Scanners/WorkForce-ES-865-Color-Duplex-Document-Scanner/p/B11B250202#review-161421712","datePublished":"2020-08-17","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"5","bestRating":"5","worstRating":"1"},"reviewBody":"I have been using the Epson Workforce ES-865 for a few weeks now, and it has been a complete savior in so many projects.

With this scanner, though, I have speed, convenience, and quality - All in one! \r\nMy of my favorite features with this product is the color quality of the scans. Working in kitchen design and remodel, it's essential that the scans we submit via our scanner is vivid and accurate, not blurry and difficult to read. This scanner provides us with exactly what we need.

Just want to tell you I am in love with this scanner.  I own a very busy remote medical billing office and I am constantly scanning documents to and from physicians and to and from my accountant.  This little scanner is a work horse and Speedy Gonzales all wrapped into one.  I was able to scan 30 pages of documents in less than 20 seconds! Amazing! The ScanSmart software on this scanner allows you to change the scanned documents using the rotate and crop features.  Plus it is super easy and not hard to use which is important to me because I sometimes find these things daunting to use.  Not this scanner.  There are so many different software applications that you can scan with this machine like scan to your email, MS Word, Excel and One Drive to name a few. It covers everything that I might want to scan and save or send and you can save in several ways like PDF, PNG, BMP, JPEG and TIFF. So that gives you a variety.\r\n\r\nThe setup was very easy but you do have to download the software from Epson's support website, it does not come in the box.  When it arrived I thought really this is it?  Comes in a very compact box but boy once you open and start setting it up you really got a lot in there.  You get in your box the Workforce ES-Color Duplex Scanner, auto-document feeder tray, ac adapter with power cable, and a 5ft long super speed USB 3.0 cable.  Once you get it set up and install the software it doesn't take very long and your ready to go!  So impressed! Basically had it up and running and scanning in less than 15 minutes!\r\n\r\nJust have to say I am super happy with this scanner! It is lightweight 7.8lbs and small enough to fit almost anywhere.  That is important because I work from a home office. It is only 9 inches high, 11 inches wide and 8 inches in depth so I got it on my desk super easy with room to spare. I honestly would recommend this to anyone working in a smaller office or larger office that wants quality scanning for photos and documents.  Its an amazing little machine!

It is compact, well-constructed, and performs very well.\r\n\r\nSetup is very easy, unboxing only takes a few minutes.  Simply attach the feed tray and remove the shipping tape that prevents pieces from moving and potentially being damaged in shipping.  The scanner is packaged securely and there were clear instructions for unboxing and setup as soon as you open the box.\r\n\r\nLoading the software is also very easy, the download and installation completed without any issues on my Windows 10 laptop.  Once installed, connect the scanner's USB cable and power it up, and you're ready to scan.\r\n\r\nThe scanner itself is excellent.  I was skeptical that it could perform as advertised in such a small device -- but I was pleasantly surprised.  This scanner is amazingly FAST and produces very high-quality scans for documents with text, images, and mixed content in both color and black & white.  I have passed nearly 1000 sheets through the scanner in a short week of ownership and it has not jammed or misfed a single time, nor have I had any issues with misaligned pages, which is not uncommon for auto-feed scanners.  It scans single and double-sided (duplex) at blazing speeds and accuracy.  The input tray holds between 50 and 100 sheets of standard paper, depending on the paper weight.\r\n\r\nTwo software utilities are included, Scan 2 and ScanSmart.  The Scan 2 is more of a basic scan utility that allows you to select a variety of settings on the scanner.  The ScanSmart software is a bit more user-friendly and is great for larger scanning jobs and for saving scans to Word format with OCR.\r\n\r\nMy initial reaction was that I was disappointed that the scanner did not support WiFi.  At this price point, it seems like that should be a given.  However, after doing some research and thinking about it, I believe that the reason that WiFi is not supported is simple:  WiFi speeds are not fast enough to keep up with how fast this scanner can scan pages.  USB 3.0 provides 5 Gbit/s bandwidth, and the vast majority of WiFi routers and laptops out there supporting 802.11ac are going to max out at less than 1 Gbit/s at best.  If you look at the competing scanners that do include WiFi, their scan speeds are nowhere near as fast as this scanner.  It was a necessary trade-off.  It might have been nice to include WiFi with the caveat that scan speeds would be drastically reduced, so that for occasions when we don't need the ultimate speed we can have the convenience of WiFi, but I'm sure that would have resulted in a lot of people calling customer support and posting bad reviews if they didn't understand the limitations of using the scanner over WiFi.  So for that, I totally understand why they chose to not include WiFi on this scanner.\r\n\r\nOverall I am very impressed with this scanner, it is perfect for my home office business uses.

It performs very well, with excellent results, and it is lightning fast. The ES-865 is used with a computer via of USB 3.0 connection, it is not a wifi scanner. I also want to mention that it works seamlessly with Windows 10. The initial set up was quick, you simply download from Epson's support site, connect your USB and the system does the rest of the work. Installing the software and the drivers is a breeze with the help of their installation wizard that steers you through the process. If there are any software updates you will receive a pop-up message, just click on the message and the update will install.My first test was to run a large stack of pages through it, some pages were creased, some were one-sided and others were doubled sided, one page was even torn at the bottom. That didn't stop the ES-865, it experienced no feed issues or jams, and the quality of my documents was excellent. Saving your documents according to your preferences is also simple. It has a default setting of 200 DPI, while it is fast, the quality isn't great. I changed my default to 300 DPI, and set it at 600 DPI for higher quality. I also really liked all the fine tuning adjustments that I had to choose from to get rid of punch holes, skipping blank pages, etc. It's great that it is so compact, my office isn't very big and I don't have a lot of room on my desk. It doesn't take up much workspace on my desk, and when I am not using it for a period of time it fits nicely and neatly under my desk. I am very impressed with this scanner, and I would highly recommend it for not only professional use but personal use as well.

First things first, the quality of this scanner is amazing. And, it's durable too! This scanner is built so well that I don't feel like I'm going to break it when I use it. It also uses the best software for a scanner, which makes it much easier to use. The first thing you are going to want to do, is plug in the scanner and then download the drivers from the internet, onto your computer. It is super easy to download the drivers, and the instructions that come with the scanner give you step by step instructions on how to do it. Once that's done, you plug in the USB cable and that completes the set up, and you are ready to use the scanner!\r\n\r\nUsing this scanner has been a breeze too! It's SO easy to use. You just put the document you want into the scanner, press the scan button and VOILA! This scanner is also VERY fast! I can't believe how fast it scans a document! I've never had a scanner that can scan in 1 second. It shoots the document right through, and then the scanned document pops up on your computer screen instantly. You can also use this scanner to create PDF and editable excel or word files. I have never seen a scanner that can do that, so that was a nice bonus for me! This scanner can scan up to 100 pages at a time too, which is a LOT. It is lightning quick and intuitive. \r\n\r\nAnother thing about this scanner that I love, is how easy it is to navigate. The buttons are super easy to use and respond fast. The LCD screen is also nice and each option on the screen is labeled clearly so it's easy to know what option you are using. There are a lot of buttons but each one is labeled so you don't get confused as to what they do. It's just a really well laid out scanner!! Once you are done using the scanner, you can just power it off until next time, or leave it on whatever you want to do! It boots up really quick too which is also really nice.\r\n\r\nAll in all, I LOVE this scanner and don't have enough great things to say about it!

Once opened it came with everything needed to get started quickly. In the box were the scanner, power block, printer cable, and quick start guide. It took me about five minutes to set up and start the software install. Once the software was installed I tested the scanner and it's so quick that if you are not looking you will miss the quickness in which is scans. Once I scanned I checked out the quality of the scans and I will say it is superb in capturing the document in the true form right out the box at 200 DPI. You can of course change your DPI and other settings in the app to get better quality of scans to your liking but I was happy with the standard settings.  \r\n\r\nThe application itself is good but the issue is that there are two different scanning apps under the Epson folder for this device, Scan Smart for when you hit the scan button on the scanner, and Scan 2 from the OS for scanning. I find that Scan 2 gives you more option before scanning to choose what your scanning. Other than that they are easy to use and not to complicated.\r\n\r\nWould I recommend this scanner to people? Yes, I would since this is the fastest, and smallest scanner I have used in a long time for home use, and the ease of use and quality makes it a great option for people who scan a lot or for a home-based business. I have seen smaller scanners with clients in the IT field but are usually not this fast or the image quality is ok at best.

I found out from unboxing to set up and use. Once out if the box you plus 2 clrds together then 1 end into the back of the scanner and the other into the outlet. It also has a cord to go from the scanner to the computer. The easy set up guide that is included walk you through the simple steps. 1st you need to go to the website to download the program. Answer a few questions and your all set. You pull the top tray and then the bottom out. Once everything is set up and install it is time to use it. You load the papers at the top and hit the scan button. They shot throught and pop up on the computer. You can then edit/rotate, name and save to the appropriate folder. This scanner is nice quick, quiet and can scan color or black and white print/pictures. This scanner can scan both sides at once and up to 65 pages per minute which eliminates flipping and rescanning. “This is a review for the Epson WorkForce ES-865 Color Duplex Document scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.”","name":"Works great"},{"@type":"Review","@id":"https://epson.com/For-Home/Scanners/Document-Scanners/WorkForce-ES-865-Color-Duplex-Document-Scanner/p/B11B250202#review-161225664","datePublished":"2020-08-13","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"4","bestRating":"5","worstRating":"1"},"reviewBody":"My initial impressions of this scanner is that it is built really well. The scanner itself weights a few pounds and feels built pretty solid. Setting up the scan is fairly easy. The physical part of setting up the scanner is really easy. The difficult part is the downloading and installing the drivers on to my computer. I am using a PC with Windows 10. My first attempt in installing the driver caused my whole computer to freeze so I had to do a force restart. When my computer restarted, I was able to reinstall the driver which this time it worked with no problems. This is one of the reasons why I give this product only 4 stars out of 5 stars. \r\nThe scanner software is very easy to use once installed. You add your document to your scanner and you can initiate the scanning from your computer which is really nice or you can initiate it from the actual scanner. For the price point, I am very surprised that this scanner does not have the ability to do wireless scanning. This scanner does not have the ability to be wireless and can not connect to your wifi which really sucks because either I have to have the scanner on my desk by my computer or I have to have a really long usb cable for the scanner. A positive and cool thing about this scanner is that it scans super quick and I am super impressed with its ability to scan both sides of a document at once and can do it very quickly. If you have a ton of documents to scan, this scanner will make your life so much easier. You can also scan all sizes of papers from regular sheets or paper to receipts. It is so easy to use once it is set up. \r\n\r\nThis is a review for the Epson WorkForce ES-865 Color Duplex Document scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.","name":"Fast Scanner but lacks Wireless Scanning"},{"@type":"Review","@id":"https://epson.com/For-Home/Scanners/Document-Scanners/WorkForce-ES-865-Color-Duplex-Document-Scanner/p/B11B250202#review-161194881","datePublished":"2020-08-12","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"5","bestRating":"5","worstRating":"1"},"reviewBody":"While the brown box it comes in may be a bit unassuming, this high-speed scanner is no joke!  I remember when they finally added auto document feeders to flatbed scanners and I thought that was a great time saver.  Well, my expectations have just been reset.  This scanner screams through documents.  I put a stack of 25 pages in the feeder, some had previously been stapled, some had been folded in half and some had printing on both sides, the ES-865 flew through the entire stack in less than 30 seconds with no feed issues and very good image quality on both front and back of the page.  It really does bring a smile to your face knowing you can get scan huge piles of documents in just minutes.  \r\n\r\nThe default image quality (200dpi) on high speed is certainly good enough for any document archiving, but you can choose a lower speed with higher quality should you need it all the way up to 1200dpi. The Epson ScanSmart software is fast and easy to use, it lets you control most of the settings for the scanner and helps get your work done quickly.  The only thing I would change would be to make the screen on the scanner a bit larger as it makes it a bit difficult to go through the on-screen settings, but as most of this can be controlled by the software anyway it is not a big issue at all.  \r\n\r\nOverall, this is a fantastic document scanner (receipts and photos too!) and I am truly impressed with the quality and speed it delivers and would recommend this to anyone that needs to do significant amounts of document scanning or archiving.

This document scanner is a compact high-volume scanner with excellent performance and quality results. The scanner has performed very well and the initial setup was simple. It is important to note that the scanner does not come with any media in the packaging for the installation so the instructions do require you to download the software from Epson’s support website. Once you have begun the installation it takes all but a matter of minutes depending on your internet download speed. The installation of the software and drivers is rather simple which includes a installation wizard that will guide you through the process. During the installation of the software you will be prompted to connect the scanner via USB and once connected the program will auto-detect the scanner for first time use.\r\nThe scanner packaging is simple and compact. The packaging includes the WorkForce ES-865 Color Duplex Document scanner, Auto-document Feeder Tray (ADF), 5FT SuperSpeed USB 3.0 cable, and AC adapter with power cable. The packaging also includes the basic “Start Here” documentation which provides the initial setup instructions to follow. \r\n\r\nWhile using this scanner I was very impressed with the ease of use and the speed at which it can produce high quality scans. I tested the performance of the scanners ability and it exceeded my expectations. I have not personally owned a scanner with this kind of performance before. This little scanner is a speed demon and I was able to scan 20 pages of documentation in less than 20 seconds. The ScanSmart software is user friendly and allows you to adjust the scanned documents with ease including rotating & cropping. The included TWAIN driver provides excellent compatibility with numerous software applications including but not limited to Scan to Email function, Google Drive, Dropbox, Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneDrive. You of course have the ability to save the scanned images directly to your local hard drive in industry standard file type formats such as PDF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and BMP.\r\n\r\nOverall I am impressed with this document scanner and the included software. Its super easy to use and because of its small size (Width 11”, Depth 8”, Height 9”) it does not take up a bunch of work space on your desk. The printer is also fairly light, weighing in at 7.8lbs (without AC Adapter/cord). I did also try to scan some color photos and it worked just as good with the photos as it did with the text documents. The quality of the resolution on the images is superb and they look great.  After using this scanner I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a scanner that is fast and produces high quality images.
